Dear all,

I am trying to source an awning for a Cheltenham Sable and was hoping someone may be able to help. I am looking on ebay and other sites but have had no luck so far.

It would be great if it was of the right age and style for the van but will consider all types.

many thanks

I posted this a while back:

I'm on the look-out for a late 1970's or early 1980's Isabella Awning; it must be 775cm, Isabella size 12 - would be extremely grateful if anyone can help

I did see your post and was hoping you may have got one.

Also as I am not too bothered about the make of awning, I thought i may have some luck. There was an Isabella on eBay last week, but not sure if size was right.

I would advertise in the local rag or rags. We have a local site for buying and selling on the net that doesn´t cost anything and you cn put up a few pics aswell free of charge. Friend of mine culdn´t get one the -normal- way so did this. He ended up with 5. Which he passed on to other enthusiasts. Many elderly couples have the awning still in the garge and don´t know what to do with it. They are usually happy to get a bit of cash for what is usually a nearly new awning. perhaps put up once or twice 30 years ago and they get rid without any problems......

I've still not got round to sticking our "jaffa cake" on Ebay ...
well to be more truthful I decided to wait for the warmer weather before listing it .
Good all round condition though it does have some fading and wear ...fully waterproof AND comes with inner sleeping compartment and curtains .










I "Might" be persuaded to part with it ...though it wasn't cheap when i bought it so won't be giving it away Wink

Our blue one was fitted to a Sable AFAIK before we bought it and fits our waterbuck perfectly ...so I'd assume the opposite is true ???
